On the 21th of March PBI carried out the first Peace Dance with local partner Sanggar Seni an umbrella organisation in the Baliem valley for traditional culture like music, dance and handicrafts. The objectives of the Peace Dance event are diverse. We want to bring together dance and musicgroups in the Baliemvalley that used the be in tribal war together. By dancing and making music together we want to pay attention to the local Papuan culture as a part of Human Rights. The event was attended by 4 groups from different places in the Palim and there were around 100 participants in total. After the performances PBI carried out a PBI socialisation in the kampung and opened peoples thoughts about their meaning of Peace and the children made beautiful drawings.
